Hi Guys,

Is it at all possible to force moderation upon group creation based on the category that one is attempting to create the group in?

Hello CK,

The "group moderation" is currently tied to the user's access. In other words, if the user is in a profile that needs to be moderated, the group that they are creating will be moderated. I think this makes more sense when the paid subscription kicks in, in the future because you could purchase a plan that doesn't require group moderation

Mark,

I understand. What do you suggest we do if we want to enable open group creation for all of the categories other than one which will need approval (for example a user can create a group in any category other than general, if they do create one in the general category it will have to be approved)?

Hi,

As we are in feature freeze phase now, we will revisit this and see if we can add this in the future.

Jason,

What do you suggest I do until such a feature can possibly be implemented?

Hi,

As Mark mentioned, currently only user in the profile with access set to moderate will need their created groups to be moderated.

Based on what I see in 1.2, it is possible to configure that a certain profile cannot create groups per category.

Navigate to [Backend] -> Components -> EasySocial -> Groups -> [Group Name] -> "Group Creation Access" and set the access there.

Thanks for the surprise
CK

Hi Jason,

I second selective Group Creation moderation by category.
To explain the rationale: If we have 3 categories: 1) Company/Organisation 2) General 3) My City. Now out of these first two categories anyone can create a group(Auto Publish), but for third category group creation should be moderated (Before Publish) because otherwise there would be multiple groups for that city.

Anyone can select City category while creating the group, but it should go for admin approval, who in turn can check if there are other groups for that city and based on that he can publish the group.

Hey guys,

Please submit your ideas / feature requests at http://stackideas.com/voices/easysocial . To be honest with you, posting ideas and feature requests is a very bad idea because I can tell you honestly that none of us will actually read through all these thousands of posts to pick up your feature requests. It's very time consuming and we prefer to go through the voices area

Mark,

I would strongly suggest to update the Voice section... namely to clear up feature already implemented and also fixed up the version on which this would been added (there are some version 3 and version 4 displayed... I suppose that this would be something to correct)

Maybe also delete duplicate feature as some were requested more than once.

This would be more than welcome and useful

Thanks Alex
